MOD | WORKING Hotspot Mod for Pie on Sprint Note 9 - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods

Hello everyone,
A while back I posted an app that helped enable hot spot on our Note 9's. I never imagined the support I would receive. Thank you so much. That app no longer works in Pie and it seems as though Sprint has totally killed the ability to call up that activity within the LTE Settings apk. Well... I found a workaround...
You can do this directly in the settings of your phone with literally no installing of apps or mods of any kind. Simply add a new APN with the same settings as the APN2 LTE | EHRPD internet apn and add the ,dun as we have before, and you're golden. This still makes my app obsolete, but I am happy to share the information. Video link is below for you visual learners.

Please consider supporting me via YouTube subs, likes, and comments. Your support means the world to me and as a computer teacher in a small school, it literally helps me eat and keeps me motivated to continue this kind of work. I will never ask for money in exchange for information, simply a thanks on this post means more than you can imagine. You can also follow me on Twitter for faster updates to things like this.
Thank you and keep on modding!

When I enter the APN Settings screen, nothing is editable. I can't add another APN. Any ideaa?

I cant select the new apn

Same issue
APN setting all greyed out unable to revert to default or add new APN. Any work around?

Anyone figure out how to enable editing? It's Greyed out for me as well.

if you have had your phone for more than 60 days with sprint call them and ask for them to unlock your phone.. after that it wont be greyed out any more
im having a different issue..i followed the video and the hotspot works but only for a couple of minutes then i start getting the same hotspot error

...

Working good so far, I havent tried an extended period of surfing, but will find out thank you.

Ok

The app works on "Oreo" and does not work on "P" if it doesn't work for you it might be because you took the update to P, you can always downgrade to Oreo if you really need this

Do you have to give them a reason you want it unlocked?

This works on unrooted.
Nicklegandhi, are you rooted?

Unlocked 512GB Samsung Galaxy Note 9 on Sprint
VoLTE and Hotspot worked on My Note 9 before Updating to Pie.
My Note 8 & 9 are Both Unlocked and never was on Any Lease or Payments. I bought them outright from Bestbuy.
Attached is the Picture as you can see, the Settings are Greyed Out, but I Can Add a New APN.
Are the APN Settings Exactly the same for the Note 8 & Note 9 in order to re-enable Both VoLTE and Hotspot?

You can do the following steps to change the APN (taken from @that.chris from the old thread on Oreo):
Dial ##3282#
Select Edit
Sprint MSL is 000000
Go to APN Settings
Add new APN, exactly like the current one but with dun this time (like in the video)
Choose new APN

I can't See or Access Any of the APN Settings because they are greyed out.
Can You Please take a Long Screenshot of the APN Setting and What to put in Each Line so it could be done Correctly.
See the Attached Picture. This is Exactly what I See when going to the Settings which I Can't Access, but I Can Add a New APN which can then be Edited.
The Second Picture is What I Can Add and Edit.
Please let Me and Everyone Know what to put on Each Line of the Second Picture.

This is what I have on mine, I tested hotspot through my Windows laptop and it was working great.

That's strange, I also have a U1 on Sprint running CSB3, but if I were you I would just copy the whole thing and add "dun" to the end.

Sprint Note 8 Hotspot - Still works - No Root

Tested this still works great!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-s7-edge/how-to/hotspot-bypass-nougat-ok-t3563446
I just got my note 8 and installed a software update.
I went to the hotspot option and enabled it. It did not tell me anything about charges or fees. Does this mean it works? Or is the mod you posted a stealth method so that sprint does not know that we use Hotspot?

How do I know if this is working correctly?
Weird thing is that:
Hotspot worked out of the box
I am able to use hotspot after changing APN settings without turning data off first
So I just want to be sure I did this right.
Was instruction 7 and 8 just informational things and not a step to get this working? Is adding "DUN" to my LTE APN really all I need to do?
Thanks

If you have a newer plan, 5 or so gigs are included. So it would be working out of the box.
I have a much older unlimited plan that doesn't include it and this method works fine. Yes adding "dun" is a step.
I beleive in your situation to test it, would be using it and checking on your sprint usage to see if it's counting towards "hotspot"
Mine stays at 0 and I use I've been using it since my note 5.

If you have hotspot plan it will show on your My Sprint usage...if not there is no way to distinguish data from data...dun bypasses this...the actual hotspot connection tags the header file of packets that can be metered by specific server...this is not provisioned on bypass...the other method changes server connection which furthers data concealment...I have been usin dun for over 5 years now with no consequence.

Guide To Enabling Video Calling On Unlocked Note 8 With T-Mobile

Hey everyone, I got my unlocked Note 8 yesterday and have been using it with a T-Mobile sim card. I spent a bunch of time trying to get the built in video calling to work and I finally got it, so I thought I would post a guide so the next person doesn't have to do the leg work.
Here is what I did, and I can now call other T-Mobile users via dialer based video calls: (the one down side is all numbers show the video call option, even if they are not T-Mobile customers, the calls just turn into audio when the other person answers)
1. Download Shortcut Master from app store (Light version works, but it's a great app, support the dev if you can)
2. Open the app and go to the menu (three dot's top right) and select app explorer
3. Scroll down to IMS Settings and select it.
4. Scroll down to ImsSettingsLauncherActivity (last item on my list) select it and hit launch.
5. Select IMS Service Switch and under that turn on everything on that screen. (For me most things (especially RCS items) were disabled by default, but when I looked at a friends S8+ settings they were all on so I tried that and all works now.)
6. Make video calls!
That's it, you should be able to make video calls from the dialer now.
Hope this helps someone! Thanks to the app dev and everyone on here for all the help I have gotten over the years!
Hi, Can you help out enabling HD voice & video for us helpless VZW peeps with the unlocked version? Please!!!

Thank you. Will try if and when I get my n8 unlocked
How did you get this to work? i followed the guide and it shows the video icon in the dialer but when i call a friend with the exact same setup it says "video calling is currently not available" and then only does voice.
---------- Post added at 11:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 PM ----------
Nevermind i got it ha. you gotta place the phone call as a normal call THEN hit the video icon during the call
Tried it for unlocked on Sprint...lol...no go..
.edit: video icon in phone app, have to test

As far as I'm finding on XDA, we'll need to flash the CSC from a T-mobile device to get this working. When I googled it, I found this thread in the S8 forum with a utility for switching CSCs but I am not sure if it would work for the Note 8, and in my case really not sure if it would work to flash a Tmobile CSC (Snapdragon device) on my Korean Exynos model.
Anyway, check it out and let me know what you think: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ility-flashable-csc-selection-v1-0-0-t3605264

Interesting, good to know and thanks for the info. I won't be getting the unlocked one, I'm getting the international version for rooting so we'll see if it works with that. Sure hope it does because tmobile reception is abysmal where I live.
I have a t moble variant, I want to flash the unlocked firmware but will able to flashback to the t mobile firmware if I wish? that's the only thing stopping me from flashing the unlocked firmware. the video calling was a big deal for me so thank you for figuring this out. also are you 100% on the unlocked firmware or do you have the t mobile CP flashed with the unlocked firmware?

Not sure if this will help 100%, but I am sure i can't hurt.
Since you're rooted you can go ahead and install this by flashing the zip in recovery.
After you have booted back up, open the new incall modz control app.
Then hit the three lines on the top left to open the control menu options.
Scroll down and click the advanced hidden menu section.
This section opens up several hidden menus.
You can look through and see what may give you the options you're looking for.
I suggest using the "apn unlocking" to give you access to edit the apn setting.
You can also play around in the "phone testing menu" section and look within the field test secrion to force LTE.
I must say BE CAREFUL because you could change a setting that may require a restore/reinstall of your rom!.
I have played with a lot of settings and never done any real damage, seems like it would just close the app of the option wasn't compatible with my phone.
The hidden menus are also accessible via a dialer code (which varies per device variant and there are playstore apps as well, don't remembwr the names.
I only suggest the mod, because it is part of ny oZoP project and it will give you lots of customizations for the caller id, plus the advanced hidden menu that i beleive you could use. Like i said though, there are other options and the choice is yours.
Good luck

Well it looks like I don't need to answer the first question, but I will just mention for other users, the mod has been tested and confirmed working on every "stock" based rom without issue.
As far as the menu options not showing, it looks to me if the setup you are running has had the files needed for the options debloated or possibly that variant doesn't include them by default.
I have attatched a flashable zip of the files needed, but I DO RECOMMEND MAKING A FULL BACKUP just in case.
After you get your backup finished just flash the zip in recovery and proceed back to the app for the extra options.
Good luck again and let me know how that goes. Your feedback is valuable to me so I can ensure that everyone gets the same experiance as I intended

New Update With Few Tips & Hotspot Mod {CRL2}

Hey All,
I had to update this thread a little it was pretty terrible on wording and full details. (Sorry About That)
The current hotspot hack still works on this new update too which is now CRL2.
You still need to add dun but it will look like this example below....
Ex: default,mms,dun,xcap,supl << Credits to whoever found this out first I just applied it to here and it works I’m currently using it now for this post :fingers-crossed::good:
*In order to edit your APN you will have to download Quick Shortcut App from the Play store*
Another thing if you didn’t know Good Lock is out and working perfectly too with new clock options and custom pulldown options that you can set to your liking.
*I added screenshots to help set what I set or how my good lock looks.*

they was added by sprint in the newest update
it was not like this before the update
XCAP is a protocol which enables a user configuring his service data (e.g., modifying a call forwarding number, changing his barring services) on the Multimedia Telephony Application Server (MTAS). The XCAP flow is typically carried over the default bearer of the Internet APN.
SUPL is a technology which utilizes existing standards where available and possible, to transfer assistance data and positioning data over a User Plane bearer, such as IP, to aid network and SUPL Enabled Terminal (SET) based positioning technologies in the calculation of a SET's position

HOW TO Edit APN: PIE 9.0 (HOTSPOT WORKING!)

Disclaimer: My SM-G955U is a Sprint device and has been UICC SIM unlocked... I don't think that should matter though...
DubWiseNJ said:
Hey guys, maybe this has been talked about before, maybe not, I'm strictly just trying to help people.
So if I enter the ##DATA# dialer menu, edit, msl 000000, and follow the menus to apn settings, I still was unable to edit my APNS...I could select between 2 of them, but if I tapped one to edit it, it was greyed out. However once on accident I realized I had gotten it to be able to be edited.
When you get to the menu that lists your different APNS, apparently TAPPING AS FAR LEFT ON THE SCREEN ON THE APN YOU WANT TO EDIT.. brings up the editable settings... dunno why this is. Maybe it's just my phone? (Sprint galaxy note 9 newest firmware as of May 18th) but yeah, it works like the olden days.
Hopefully this helps some people out, if it's been talked about before I apologize, my intention was only to help people out.
I do have a question while I'm here though, does anyone know why in my Settings, Connections, Mobile Networks, APNS menu do I have around 6 or 7 different APNS, but in the ##DATA# menu I only have 2? And for that matter, I can't even manually add the others. If anyone knows how I can either find a way to select between the other 5 or 6, or get it to where I can manually add them that'd be awesome. Anyways, hopefully I was some kind of a help to someone. Later everyone, I love everything this site is about!

I DID NOT come up with this hidden method for editing the APNs, it was found here in an S9 APN editing thread....
Tried on my S8+ and all works well...
Just add "dun" to the APN type section of your default n.ispn or x.ispn APN and save changes.
I mistakenly took the 9.0 update and searched for many hours how to get the hotspot working again before I stumbled upon this.
Just trying to spread the info. Seems to work on many Galaxy S models.
please sir, how do i get into my ##DATA# dialer menu on Samsung note 8
Worked perfect for me on Sprint, UICC locked, S8+
Very nice find!!!!
